[Tkinter-discuss] select multiple folders/ directories

[Sujay]

Thank you Wayne,

I really appreciate your swift response.

I have solve this problem by using wxpython. 

Now I am stuck in another problem. I can not select directory from network.
Dialogue only shows directory of my local system.

In short, i cant access NETWORK in this multidirdialog.. its just based on
local file system access.

do u have any idea how i can tweek this?? work around?

Best regards,

Sujay Kher
